Looking to upgrade/replace my curently stolen speakers with the TL350 set. Anyone have any comments on these speakers? I will be powering them with an Onkyo TX-NR809.

    That's good to hear. I was also thinking about getting a pair for the computer as well. I listen to most of my music while on the computer.

    Was also considering an lsi 7.1 setup, LSi15, LSi9, LSi FX, LSiC, but since I don't use the entertainment room for much music they might be a tad overkill? Though the TX-NR809 can handle 4ohm i don't belive it's 100% rated for it. And a 4ohm 7.1 configuration may bring the 809 to it's knees.

    I'd have to guess both would be about the same for movies, but miles apart with music?

    My entertainment room is actully on the small side. 13' wide by 18' deep. 7-8' viewing distance. I was considering the lsi 7.1 setup because of the price, but I was thinking about running a 5.1 setup, and using the lsi9's as computer speakers. I have an extra reciever pioneer vsx-d811s i was going to use for the computer, but it can't handle 4ohm. So now I'm back to considering the tl350 again.

    Still thinking. Wish there was somewhere near me I could listen to them.
